Why representation matters, with Sukh Singh

The Everyday Hustle

Available for over a year

Ahead of the Sikh celebration of Vaisakhi, Sonya discusses the power of prepesentation of the Sikh community with the co-founder of Khalsa Toy Store, Sukh Singh. Sukh wanted to create a toy that allowed children to feel seen and represented, after his children asked why they don't see Sikh heroes on TV, and so set up Khalsa Toy Store, with his friend P. Gill making world's first ever Sikh action figures. This week's 60 Second Career comes from Customized4You, which is an online store selling sustainable and ethically made clothing.
